MEMBERS

Many well-known stars have performed in ENSA, including Gracie Fields and George Formby.


IN POPULAR CULTURE

Despite many extremely talented entertainers and movie stars, past and future, working for ENSA, the organisation was necessarily spread thin over the vast area it had to cover. Thus many entertainments were substandard, and the popular translation of the acronym ENSA was ''"Every Night Something Awful"''

The television sitcom It Ain't Half Hot Mum concerned the misadventures of a group of soldiers providing entertainment for an army barracks in India. These were known as the ''Concert Party'' and were not ENSA members per se.
